Look. Something beautiful. Every day.

From Both Sides Now

It was one of those days when the clouds kept catching my eye. Coming home from aqua aerobics this morning, they were hanging above Hydra’s mountain on the drive up to our neighborhood. That’s about as green as we are likely to see our hills this year.

Looking back toward the Angeles National Forest from the drive.

The sky continued to be amazing as the sun went down and we were out in Palmdale running errands. Couldn’t really get any shots with the little Lumix that captured it.

I think we need a bumper sticker that says “I brake for photo ops.”

A raven flew up while we were stopped along Tierra Subida to take photos. I thought about cropping out all the lines, but it is what it is.

I like the way the light blurred a little in this shot as we crossed over the California Aqueduct heading toward the reservoir. Yes, Hydra was driving. He’s great about pulling over, or even going back for shots!
